Become a Certified Practitioner of Ericksonian Hypnosis

Immerse yourself in the ideas and methods of Milton H. Erickson, MD (1901-1980). He was one of the most innovative and effective hypnotherapists of all time, known especially for his indirect approach to “therapeutic trance.”

The 7-Step Strategy of Therapeutic Trance

This long anticipated workshop is an intensive and broad exploration of the major concepts and techniques of Erickson’s hypnotic work. Not only a sprawling odyssey of cutting-edge ideas, this is also an opportunity to practice a variety of Erickson’s hypnotic communication patterns while learning a streamlined distillation of Ericksonian Hypnosis – “The 7-Step Strategy of Therapeutic Trance.”

Emphasizing trance-states and the utilization of “internal resources” (over direct suggestion), Therapeutic Trance uniquely supplements Hypnotherapy and can revolutionize your practice.

Fantastic presentation! Thank you so so much Michael. I work from intuition and found so much of what I do validated in this class. Profound topics are touched here as to the nature of consciousness. The Shamanic way is one of faith through experience that brings healing from within. The divine/love must be present.
